About 15 minutes after Zatanna's video call, Oliver, Dinah, Diana, Megan, Conner, and Kaldur arrived back into the living room with the others.

"Alright guys," said Wally who was getting a little tired. "Last one for the night."

The other teens nodded. Some of them had to go back home because of their parents.

Megan turned to the adults and started to speak. "So, we heard that Dr. Fate came and told you guys the truth about the videos after the three of us... left." She chuckled nervously.

The other four teens looked at them with a dry look. 'You guys left us out to dry...'

"Before I forget," Oliver turned to face Robin.

"What?" asked Robin.

"Now that Zatara has his partial freedom back..."

'...Oh no,' Robin thought. This was not looking good for bird boy.

Oliver continued, "He can finally...take care... of some family matters."

Zatanna oblivious to the underlying threat asked, "Ooh, what does Dad want to talk about."

"Oh, he's just concerned after hearing about your new relationship with Robin," Oliver added.

Zatanna's eyes widened slightly. "Oh yeah. We never did tell him that we got together after the New Years thing. What does he think?"

Fingers crossed behind his back, Robin mentally pleaded. 'Please let it be good...'

Oliver answered. "Well, he said as long as you Zatanna are happy, he'll accept your new boy toy."

'Oh thank god.' Robin breathed a sigh of relief. Zatanna smiled at her father's approval.

"Nice going Rob," congratulated Wally and Artemis with a pat on the back.

"Aww, that so sweet of him," commented Megan.

Dinah decided to interrupt the calm. "That's not all."

'What now?' Robin giving a nervous gaze. The couple looked intently at the speaker.

"He said, and I quote," Dinah coughed. "If that boy breaks my daughter's heart, I will toss him into the fiery pits of Hell for all eternity!"

Robin paled at the father's threat. Zatara really could literally take him to Hell with the powers of Dr. Fate. "Well... It's good to see that he cares."

Dinah smirked. "He's got his eye on you, especially since he now works in the Tower of Fate. You don't want to end up like the last guy to break her heart."

That confused the young boy. "There was a guy before me?"

His girlfriend's eyes perked up. "Oh yeah. I never did tell you about my past relationship. Anyways, his name is Michael."

"What happened between you and him?"asked Robin.

Zatanna continued. "Well, it all started when my dad said that he didn't like him... It all went downhill from there."

"What do you mean?" several people asked.

She continued. "He started acting all weird. He was darting his head around as if looking for someone or something. He would get emotional outbursts out of nowhere. Then he started avoiding me. At that point, he broke up with me over a text message."

Robin frowned. "I'm sorry that you had to go through all that."

Zatanna sighed. "I never did see him again."
